Hi All,

Can someone please help as to which type of elbow I need.
Water tank if fed by 22mm, compression fitting this then goes to a female fitting at the other end of the elbow which connects with the float valve (it's an old valve with a metal ballcock).

I bought a 1/2" float valve at Screwfix but the fitting is too small for the female fitting at the elbow. I even tried splitting the valve but the threads were different.

Can someone please let me know what elbow I require as when I do a search I can't find a 22mm compression to 1/2" female fitting elbow.

OR is there another way to do it.

Thanks for any help.

Sorry no pictures as it was at my Mums house which is about 40miles away.
It just looks like a normal brass elbow 22mm at one end and a female fitting at the other but it was too big for a 1/2" float valve.
 
Or just replace what was already there before,

Thanks Jim.

Yes that would do. Screwfix was on the way through to her house and all the float valves they have in stock were 1/2".
Will pick that up from Toolstation.
Once again thanks.
